A/N: Chapter Five Everyone! Welcome to the Shining Night!
Ichigo: *Sweat drop* Your'e not Kaitou Joker.
Kitty: Goddammit, you needn't remind me of my short comings.
Mira: You are fairly short.
Kitty: I'M AVERAGE AS OF FIVE YEARS AGO! And you're freakishly tall, you can't compare me to you. Hmph.
Tensa: That would be 5' 4", not 5' 2 3/4"
Kitty: ...I hate you all...
Hichigo: *looks up from manga* Kitty Katrona don't own shit, we belong to Tite Kubo.
Kitty: ...*Pout*
"That is you, isn't it, Ichigo?", Rukia asked getting my attention back to her and Renji, who was looking at me intently as well, so I do the only sensible thing, I draw my sword, and hold it pointed at them, and say, "My name is 15, and I have nothing to say to a Shinigami, anything you want to say to me can be said to my sword in your throat."
And with that I attacked.
I slashed Zangetsu at Rukia, she jumped back, looking taken back. "Howl, Zabimaru!", yells Renji, as he goes to defend. He looks at my sword, then at me, trying to figure out why I had attacked them. I slashed at him, and he blocked with Zabimaru, I slash again at his chest, he jumps back. All the while Rukia is watching, with a strange look on her face. After trading blows for a bit longer with Renji I speak up again, "You ever hear of a thing called a 'constant'?" He looks at me weird, then before replying, I interupt asking yet another question, "Have you even said goodbye to the boy you abandoned, after he lost his powers?" He looks stunned, then growled, and yelled at me, I was leaning casually against one of the window panes above him. "How would YOU Know if you aren't Ichigo?!" I returned his statement with a smug grin looked down on them and simply said, "Because, he is my charge, I am a Guardian, and I protect him, from things you Shinigami can't see or even touch on a power level that you operate from. I am 15, Leader of the 15th regiment of the Arranian Court Guard, and Guardian of Kurosaki Ichigo. And Shinigami, don't belong anywhere near him, after you abandoned him, just because he couldn't fight on the same level as you anymore. People like you make me sick."
"We didn't abandon him!", Rukia yelled, the first thing in a while. I looked down at her and just sighed. "Denial is bad for your health, Shinigami-san. And that was a lot of it if I ever heard, only one of you said 'goodbye' and none have visited since. You can't call yourself someones friend if you leave because of something out of their control. How do you think he feels? Huh?! Ever think of that?!", I yelled at her, then jumped down and quickly moved behind her, hit her on the back of her neck, to knock her out. Renji yelled and charged at me, I side stepped him and hit him on the back of the neck with the flat of my blade, knocking him out. I 'sheathed' my reversed colored Zangetsu, and jumped out of one of the open windows, noticing the approaching Aura's of a stupid shopkeeper and his loyal ninja-neko. I smirked and used parkour to get out of the area. And away from them, the troubles of my past.
Instead of heading back to the compound, I went home, or well the place that used to feel like home, but know since I lost my Shinigami powers, it feels less like home. Anyways, I jumped up to my window and opened it and went in, deactivating my Guardian form, and laying down on my bed, kicking my boots off. I lifted up my head and pulled my phone out of my pocket, and dialed a number. It rang twice before Kon's face appeared on the projected screen, "What's up boss? Not coming back?" "No, I'm going to stay at home, let Yuzu stay in my room at the compound. Dad, and Karin won't be back for a while, so just let her stay there, I've got to deal with a certain temperamental Albino.", I stated getting a 'hmph' from inside my head. Kon's face lit up as I said that, "So he is back!?", he yelled I flinched, and replied, "Yeah, and I have a lot of explaining to do." "Oh, hehe, yeah probably, I'll let you go then, and I'll make sure Yuzu gets to bed at a decent time, she's riding with Kitt on Stryker right now, so I'll pass on the message for yah, Night Boss!"
"Night Kon.", and with that I closed the phone, grabbed my head phones that Cy' designed for me and put them on and dropped in to my inner world. I looked down at my attire, it was the same clothes I wore in my guardian form. "Yo, King, Dafuq did I miss?" I hear from behind me and I look and see Shirosaki Hichigo, my inner hollow and true Zanpakuto, he is looking at me with mild curiosity, I guess that's cause of my attire, but I don't think that much as I run over to him and hug him. Tears started to fall from my eyes.
I felt him flinch as I grip him in a death lock holding him, hoping this isn't a dream, he slowly hugs back. Then he sighs, hugging me just as tight. I feel a few tears of his fall on my head. "Damn King, I thought That I'd nev'r see yah again.", he whispered into my ear. We stood there for a good five minutes, then slowly let go. "So wha' did I miss", He asked, as we sit next to each other, so I filled him in on the whole situation, when I told him the others were now constants, I had to stop him from taking over my body or manifesting, to go and beat them up, I told him their reasons, and he couldn't fault them.
"Wow, only 'bout two months and yah have all this kind of shit to deal with, nev'r an easy moment. Eh, King.", he snickered, and I just sighed. Then looked at him, "So what was it like, where ever you went when I lost my powers?" "It was dark and lonely, I couldn't even find Tensa in the dark void. It was terribly lonely, and boring, and then I heard some voices. I headed towards them for a long while, then I heard a voice make fun of our sealed/shikai form, and I flipped and pooled all of my energy to go and yell at th' Fuck'r that insulted us, and then I ended up back to you, King.", he said sighing, and laying down watching the clouds float by. I leaned back and watched them as well.
Then an idea hit me. "Nai, Shiro, I have an idea, one that will get the Shinigami off our back for a while.", I said with a smirk, he looked at my face and his lit up like a kid on Christmas. "Prankapoluza?", He asked hopefully, a full shit-eater grin appeared with my reply. "Prankapoluza.", I said, my smile and closed eyes could have had me mistaken for Gin. He cackled, then went full on evil psychotic laughter, that I loved and had dearly missed. One Down, One to go.
After that we sat in each other's company, just enjoying being back with each other, I must have fallen asleep some time later, 'cause I woke up in bed, and dodged my dad's 'Good Morning kick', and threw him out the window. "Goddess Dammit!", I yell at him from my window, "Can't you be serious?! Yah know, like EVER!" "My Only son wounds me! By the way, where is your sister? She wasn't home last night.", He responds back, jumping up to my window and coming in my room through it. "She had dinner at a friends house, and she stayed over there. And don't worry, I trust that friend of mine with my life, He is a good kid, and so are the rest that live there.", I said, scowling at my dad, he looked at me, then sighed, got off my bed and went towards my door. "Well, if you say so. She better be okay when she comes home, or else!" And with that he left, closing my door. I sighed, took off my head phones and got my clothes for the day. I hear a sigh in my head, and I smirk and then say to him, "So you on your way to cause mayhem?" I hear a psychotic giggle from Shiro as a reply. "Go get your old gear from your room in the compound, and go wild!", I tell him, Letting him materialize and he jumps out of my window with a two finger salute, before he is gone.
My dad comes back in my room in a flash, as I'm taking off my shirt from yesterday, I just look at him, with my eyebrow quirked. He looks around my room frantically, I ask him, "Is there a problem?" He looks at me for a second seriously, then sighs, and says, "No, just thought I heard something in here, that's all. Hurry up or you'll be late to school, My lovely son!" And with that he's gone, I sigh in relief. Glad my dad didn't question me about the Hollow reiatsu he probably felt from Shiro, as he materialized. I finish getting ready and head out for school, letting my thoughts stray from the mayhem Shiro is going to cause, with my permission.
~Shiro's POV~
As I went to get my old gear from the compound, I ran into Grimm, Ulqui, Tatsu, and Mira, when they were about to leave for school. They all looked extremely pleased about me being back, I kicked them all a couple of times for them becoming constants. Afterward, Mira Hugged me and cried a bit, Tatsu had a few tears stinging his eyes as well, Grimm is smirking, and Ulqui is stoic as ever, but I see a small smile on his face. "Where is Kon and Yuzu?", I asked looking around and not seeing them. "Kon escorted Yuzu to school earlier, so she can see her sister.", Mira replied, grabbing her bag off the floor where she had let it fall when she hugged me. "By the by, Cy' is inside, she's got your gear, she had a feeling you would want them, so she started on them early this morning, she should be in the shed out back. We have to had to head school, see you later, Hichi-chan", Mira said, heading towards the direction of Karakura High. "Thanks Mira, see you guys later", I replied with my shit-eater grin. Grimm seemed to catch on the way I smiled and he smirked and asked, "Prankapoluza?" I nod my head enthusiastically in response, everyone else shuddered. "I pity the poor souls you have planned this on, and I just KNOW you somehow got Ichigo's permission, right?", said Tatsu, shaking his head dismissively as he walks away, I smirk in response.
As they head off, I hold my hand up to the gate, and 15.1 appears upon it, I smirk, and head on in, as the familiar feeling of being scanned runs over me, I think on how lucky I am for having not been found by Shinigami yet, I mean, my reiatsu is a hollows even though I'm also a zanpakuto, the small contradictions in life, right? I head into the house and around through the kitchen to the door out backyard and to the shed, inside I see one of my favorite people in existence, Cy', she took my last name a while ago, 'cause she felt like it, strange little girl, but an AMAZING prankster, and the greatest tech specialist ever!
"Hichigo!", she yelled, dropping what she was working on and running over to me and holding me in a tight hug, I smirked down at her head, and she let go after a quick hug, a few tears had left her eyes, she wiped them away quickly. She ran over to her work table, and handed me a necklace with my version of Tensa Zangetsu, the chain was wrapped around itself, and a phone with my fully hollowfied mask attached to it. "The activating phrase of your Guardian form is 'Kuroi Getsuga', the phone is your communicator, and the mask is your shadow detector, and also, here is 'THAT'", she said, then handed me a bag. I instantly recognize it as my bag I use to hold my pranking gear, I smirk, take the bag, hug Cy', and sonido out of the shed, yelling, "Thanks" as I go. I put on the necklace and hold the chibi sword in my hand and say, "Kuroi Getsuga" My transformation is instantaneous. My reverse shinigami uniform is replaced with a white hoodie, white tripp pants, with black chains, white combat boots with black shoelaces. On my back is King's version of Zangetsu, huh, weird, oh well, let's get the Prankapoluza started. My shit-eater grin in place, Fun times ahead.
~Third Person POV~
Just another normal day in Karakura Town, that's what Urahara Kisuke thought before he saw what had become of his precious store, The ENTIRE outside had been painted bright pink, and had what looked like blood splatter all over it.
A scream came from a newly awoken cat, the once black cat, was now pink and yellow. With neon green ribbons tied around her tail.
Another scream came from the Ishida residence, Uryu had gone to put on his Quincy Uniform, and had found all of them died different colors, from pink, to yellow, to Neon green, all the hideous colors that would scare children, had been died into his uniforms.
At the end of the day, Hichigo and Ichigo were in their Guardian forms, watching the mayhem, as all the other little pranks Hichigo had set up activated, smoke bombs in the mall, pink smoke bombs all over the town, Paint ball bombs on the unsuspecting Ikkaku and Yumichika, who were running from Keigo's sister. Laughing uproarously, unbeknownst to them a figure was watching them from above them higher in the sky, the black cloaked figure smirked and said, "Enjoy yourselves for now, but soon, you will be all dead by the hands of my master, the Ultimate Shadow of the Karakura circlet. Hahahahahahahahahahahah- *Cough-Cough* Ha... I hope I'm not coming down with anything..." The Figure finished, his thoughts and fell into a dark spinning portal like thing. Leaving the Pranksters to their glory.
